About BookLab:
Founded in 2018, BookLab is the English department’s makerspace, letterpress printing studio, library, and center for the book arts. We are active participants in the College’s Arts for All initiative and the UMD Makerspace Initiative.
BookLab’s resources include six different hand-presses for letterpress printing; a cabinet full of lead and wood type; two typewriters; a 3D printer, Cricut, and Glowforge; material and tools for paper-making, bookbinding, zine-making, and sensors and circuitry for paper computing. We also have an extensive library of artists’ books, experimental books, how-to guides, historical artifacts, books about books, and more.
